Everyone wants someone else to pay for their tattoos right?
Gift vouchers are available!
I have physical vouchers and email vouchers available.
Free After ink balm for all cash payments so you can give this along with the voucher and insure the lucky recipient is fully taken care of.
How lovely.

Space for a moth.

Handpoked the moth, but unusually the majority of this sleeve I done by machine.
Can you tell what’s poked and what’s machine? 🧐

Thanks Liz!

This week I came down with Covid and my iPad died.
But here’s the first of my new design sheets, Inspired by kitsch ornaments, which hold a very special place in my heart.
💖
I have some spaces available in November for these!

Next flash day!

Dotwork patterns like this are perfect for handpoke, I love the process of making making them and watch it come together.
👌🏼

Hibernation season is nearly upon us!
🍂
I’m so fortunate to say I’m nearly booked up for the rest of the year, thank you so much!
For the remainder of my spaces I would love to focus on pre designs and repeatable flash designs.
I seem to have fallen into a preconceived style that I’m not 100% with, and although I have loved tattooing everything for you guys, I would really love to explore styles I’m more passionate about.
Pet tattoos will always hold a special space in my heart because dog is literally my child! So still message me for those!

I get lots of emails regarding smaller generic designs, so I’ve decided to hold walk-in days for these types of tattoos.
I’ll be holding the first, one weekend in November (TBC) at ShuHaRi Studio.

Ear tattoos (and any tattoo really) can look different from different angles due to the natural contours of the ear (or body)

I hear it all the time “sorry my arms wonky” “sorry my ears aren’t flat”

Don’t apologise for your body.
Our body’s aren’t a flat piece of paper!

Freehand ear ornaments, all hand poked.

Autumn vibes are kicking in and I can’t stop thinking about Halloween 👻
Right now I’m getting prepped with for our Handpoke Takeover over at
I’m also trying to save some flash design ideas for a Friday 13th and Halloween with and !

I sign off in December to focus on my other work over at . So if anyone wants to book in for funky Xmas nails go to my nail page and pop me a message.
(Yes, I’m already thinking about Xmas!)

Im now booking for October and November, and that’ll be it for this year (can you believe!)
